Note. Dashed lines indicate zero connectivity. Islands are listed in order of highest centrality from 1991 to 2005. Years with an asterisk indicate that some islands during this period have equivalent centrality rank. Local populations: Western Queen Elizabeth Islands (WQEI), Eastern Queen Elizabeth Islands (EQEI), Prince of Wales/Somerset/Boothia (PSB), Banks/Victoria (BV)
